Yes, she is small, to be sure,-yet remember that the best things come in small packages. Never mind, hfarj, if some of the big girls do almost knock you down,they really don't mean to be cruel. She comes from Springfield, Vermont-how we all do envy those frequent week-ends that she spends at home. We hear that hlarj is going to take up secretarial work. VVhat an efficient little stenog she will be. Don't forget to type us a few letters when you get out in the business world. Quhria Garhner '24d0fia Pownal.

Four years ago Audria came to us, just a little girl with a pig tail down her back, and now she is one of the most active members of the Senior Class. Audria shines not only in her studies but in athletics and dramatics. She played center on our victorious basket- ball team, but we understand that she is seriously thinking of going out for footballg at least it was announced at the football banquet. Indeed it is difiicult to put Audria in words for she represents so many different interests here at V. A. The success of our school paper is largely due to you, our liditor-in-chief. W'e all wish you success when you get out into the world and know you will find it. Wjillflll' gbilillilkii Vic Saxtons River, Vt. CLAssIcAI.

Ile does not speak often but when he does, what words of wisdom! Not all of his time is given to downtown affairs, though Jack Bryant will agree that Vic is suflicient hustler to do hi. tasks at home. Vic proved himself to be a loyal V. A. supporter as one of the mainstays on our championship team. Everyone is glad that he decided tt re- turn and graduate with the class of '27, after a year's absence. In the NVinter Carnival Vic did his bit, by winning several prizes. VVC regret that Vic has not lived ou the hill so we might all have become even better acquainted with him. 1 .5 , M11 J ruff' W 10 C f 1 fr C C' U 5' f I .W R' I t x s iiE,?3wfpjfl'?l'j C 'lt .J Vw WVWLK - N f 4-fx, 4 CPM - PM 251-fffs'1c'f-14. 1-4,1 4 c,OQfxLs, q.

WVhat is more, as a banjo player and as a singer in the Vesper ClIoir he stands alone as the most versatile of the musical talent in this grand old class of '27. Arlyn has a way about him which is instantly attractive. Not in the least boastful or conceited, his classmates have found his ready wit and hearty laughter a source of cheerfulness for four years. It would be most difficult to predict a Career for this restless fellow, but it may be safely said that what- ever channel he may choose to follow no end of success will be his due.

Ez's abilities are varied however, and he may well be proud of his accomplishments. Al- though not the brightest in his class, Dike's work has been consistent and honest. This story-teller truly has been endowed with a keen sense of humor. In fact, it is reasonably certain that this fellow can tell more witty stories than any other half dozen boys in school. On the football Held was where Ez displayed his indomitable spirit. For three whole seasons he strove valiantly for a position on the first eleven. lt must be conceded that this requires no end of stick-to- it-iveness.

Yes, indeed, never has a more conscientious, sincere student ever graced the walls of this venerable institution. There is but one regret in Connection with this likable boy. That is that we had the priv- ilege of having him with us for only one year. When l.anky first arrived at Vermont Academy he was on crutches, but plenty of food and sleep. and regular hours of exercise worked wonders, and at the end of six weeks he was getting about in great shape. As a student lianky ranks alone. His steady, honest work in Physics and Trigonometry stamp him as being a grim sticker. Thus passeth another student of whom this institution may well be proud.

A short time after the opening of school in the fall, a large trunk tagged Betty Howe came to Alumni Hall. Of course everyone was very anxious to know her and, I wonder what she will belike, 'was heard all over the dorm. But no one expected as much as came, in moie ways than one, for she is not only the tallest girl in Alumni Hall, but where would our basketball team be but for her? We can't forget either the points that she won for the Seniors in the Winter Carnival. All the year Betty has helped to make Thursday morning Chapels enjoyable with her music on the violin. YVell Betty, we wish you all success, and we know that your cheery smile will be a big help in getting it. Qing igllll Alice Ii. Longmeadow, Mass. P. c.. AT v. A. Nothing but blufbirdy all day long.

'l'he way he wears his clothes, parts his hair, his walk, his tastes, and his neat- ness distinguish him. To look at this young: fellow one would think him a very demure boy, but don't be fooled. lillis has always liked to keep to himself more or less. Long walks in the woods and softly playing the piano seem to be his two favorite hobbies. lfllis has an artistic temperament. Altliough it has been but seldom that we have heard lfllis play the piano, on the few occasions that we have been privileged to hear him, he has startled us with his extraordinary ability. lie has made his presence very etlective in the Christian Associations of the school and also in the Parliamentary Law Course The future must indeed hold something: bright for this likable chap. -J , ' MEIBIIS Elflljtlgnn '4Sparky Xkiardsboro, Yt. sciiaxriric xraicxra Noaxur. scnoor.

Wvheu Sparky first graced the portals of the institution he was a small, unassuming lad whom one would not expect to set the world alire. Ile had not been here longbefore he gave evidence of beiniga real student and a good worker. As business manager of the Life this past year he has proved himself to be a man ofexceptional business ability. This fellow really ought to continue his education, as he probably will. If such is the case, no end of sueeess will be his due.
